You work in a dead end job at a convenience store, mostly the night shift - which is soul sucking. Speaking of soul sucking, your co-worker is an Eldritch horror in human form.

You have taken to calling your co-worker Shorty, as it told you that it's true name would drive everyone in a five mile radius insane if spoken out loud.

Based on the comic of a similar name by Senukin - also where the profile picture is from.
